In May 2025, during the 5th Qatar Economic Forum, Invest Qatar announced the launch of a $1 billion national incentives programme, reinforcing the country’s commitment to accelerating foreign and domestic investment. Building on the 2022 National Incentives Framework, the programme targets high-value, impact-driven investments aligned with the Third National Development Strategy (NDS3). The programme launched with four tailored incentive packages for Advanced Industries, Logistics, Technology and Financial Services, supporting key NDS3 growth clusters and strengthening Qatar’s global competitiveness. The programme offers reimbursements of up to 40% of eligible local investment costs over five years, covering business setup, construction, office leases, equipment and workforce expenses. Clear eligibility criteria, including minimum investment thresholds, job creation requirements and sector alignment, ensure support is directed toward projects that deliver measurable economic impact. Applications are fully digitised through the Invest Qatar Gateway, enabling streamlined submissions, faster reviews and consistent governance.
